Blue Carts - Coming Spring 2019

Blue and Black Carts will be delivered to the front of your home between March 18 and April 19, 2019. Blue and Black Cart collection will start the week of May 6; on your regular garbage pickup date in the same location you normally place your garbage (front street or back alley). The information you receive with your cart will explain which cart will be picked up that first week.

The Blue Cart replaces your blue box, and the Black Cart will be for all other household garbage.

When the program is in full swing, Blue and Black Carts will be picked up every other week, on alternating weeks. Green Carts will continue to be picked up weekly.

What will go in the Blue Cart?In general, you can recycle paper, cardboard, metal cans and plastics #1 through 7.

Unacceptable items: Glass bottles and jars will not be accepted in the Blue Cart. Through the new collection system, glass is broken into small pieces that cannot be recovered at the sorting facility. Instead, recycle glass bottles and jars at a community recycling depot.
